I am not able to download the Tom voice for some reason. It only downloads a
small part of it. I am able to download any of the other voices. Is anyone
else who has tried adding a voice had any issues? Can anyone send me the
file via dropbox or send space? Thanks for any help.

Subject: Re: Changing voices after jailbreaking the iphone 5, is that
possible?

Hi,

Lets try and condense Bens instructions a little. Part of the below was
taken from a guide originally created by @pitermach on Twitter.
Assuming you're running Windows - not 7 x64:

1: download and install this:
http://iphonefolders.com/
2: connect your device and find it in my computer; make sure you have access
to the entire file system. If you're not jailbroken you'll only be able to
browse the media folder and this hack will not be possible for you
unfortunately.
3: Download the voice that you want from http://www.vocalizer-nvda.com
4: On your computer, navigate to
/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/VoiceServices.framework/TTSResources/
on your device.

Now you should see subfolders with language codes. You can, however, ignore
these and drop in any other data you wish and it will work (in fact, for the
sake of this guide, we'll be replacing samantha with Lee, but other
combinations will work as well) Enter one of these folders. You will see a
file called broker.hdr, a few dat files, and a text file called
user_rules.txt. This file is custom written by Apple, and it can be used as
a dictionary (ever wondered why your iDevice pronounces artists like Rihanna
correctly?
Well, there you go). You can either leave it as is, or replace it by the
file of the language you're replacing it with (IE, since I'm replacing Sammy
with Lee, I could take the rules file out of then en-AU folder. But since
that file is much smaller, I chose not to.) Now, go ahead and make a backup
of this folder in case you break something - E.G. copy paste to a folder on
your computer.

We'll now prepare the voice data:

Time to look at the NVDA vocalizer driver. When you open the adon's zip file
or folder, you will see a locale folder, which contains strings for NVDA<
and a folder with the language code (for lee, it's ENA), and you want to go
there. There will be only a speech folder so enter that as well. Now you'll
see 2 folders, components, and vautov5.
The components folder will have a bunch of dat files. You will definitely
need these 3,  languagecode and voicename will change depending what voice
you're working with clc_languagecode_cfg3.dat
clc_languagecode_voicename_cfg3.dat
select_voicename_bet2f22.dat

The 2 files below contain the voice data for the standard variant:
synth_voicename_dri40_155mrf22_270_06.dat, or something to that effect, is
the standard variant, which has a bunch of compression on it.
synth_voicename_dri40_vssq5_f22.dat is the standard high version, which
sounds very similar to the premium variant, and I'd recommend using this
one.
next is synth_voicename_full_155mrf22_270_06.dat, this is the premium
variant, again, the one which has compression on it. This is the one iOS
downloads for Siri, at least on my iPod touch 5. And, not surprisingly,
below that, is synth_lee_full_vssq5_f22.dat, the premium high version, the
largest one, just choose the one you want.

Then we have the lexicon files. THe one with dri40 in the name is for
standard, and the one with full is, not surprisingly, for premium. THe
compact lexicon is included in iOS already. No idea  how NVDA gets it.
  Again, take the one appropriate to the variant you picked.
You may have noticed we have everything... except brokerhdr. Well, you will
find it in the vautov5 folder. But what the! THere are many hdr files here!
What to do!
Well, it's simple. Notice that the names correspond to the .dat files.
SO there is a hdr file for compact, standard, standard high, premium, and
premium high. Just get the one appropriate to what variant you have, put it
with everything else, and rename it to broker.hdr.
That's it! Now go and delete the files from your iDevice, and upload your
new voice. You can access it by selecting what ever language you replaced
from the roter, so in our case, Lee will now be under US English.

If you're running 7 x64 or OSx, you'll be unable to install iPhone folders,
so instead, do the following:

1: Open Cydia then search for and install openssh.
2: On your device, navigate to settings > wifi > network name more info
(Where network name is the name of the network your connected to) and make a
note of your ip address.
3: Using a program such as putty on Windows or the terminal on OSx, connect
to your iPhones newly installed SSH server using the ip address we've just
found.
4: Login with the following credentials:
User: root
Password: alpine
5: Type "passwd" without the quotes and change your password by following
the onscreen instructions. This step is important.
6: You now need a method of transfering files to your device; Putty comes
with a console app called psftp that will do this, although you may find
winSCP more friendly. Unfortunately I'm unsure of what options you have if
you're running OSx. You will need to authenticate again; the user will still
be root however the password will now be the new password that you created
above.
Now continue with the above guide from step 4; note that you no longer need
openssh installed once you've replaced your voice, so if you're feeling
paranoid, you may wish to remove it through Cydia.

Cheers,
Ben.
